Night Without Sleep

by Ellen Bailey

 
Have you ever had a night
     when you just couldn't sleep?
Even when you're so tired
     you could fall off your feet?

You get up for awhile,
     and then you lay back down
And just lie there,
     watching the clock go round

Have you ever had a night
     when you just couldn't sleep?
And you remember that old adage,
     "Try counting sheep"

After some time has passed by
You decide you'll give it a try

Have you ever had a night
     when you just couldn't sleep?
And you start counting sheep,
     even their feet

Since sleep won't come,
     you get out of bed
And decide to have some
     roast mutton instead
